90 percent of Europeans would vote for Obama: poll
Reuters ^ | October 31, 2012 | By Peter Schwartzstein, London

More than 90 percent of northern Europeans would vote for President Barack Obama if they were able to cast ballots in the United Sates' election next week because they see Mitt Romney as too right wing, British pollster YouGov said on Wednesday.

While U.S. polls show Obama and Romney are heading for a photo finish, European voters in seven northern European countries expressed overwhelming support for the Hawaiian-born 51-year-old White House incumbent.

In a Europe grappling with economic crisis and welfare systems that bond investors say are unsustainable, the rhetoric of the U.S. presidential race simply does not press the same buttons.

"Accusations of socialism (against Obama) don't exactly resonate somewhere like Denmark," Twyman said.

He condemed Europe (Germany) for demanding “austerity” in Italy, Greece and Spain. He’s the hero of the brainless serf in Europe.

What is the purpose of such a poll? Who commissioned it? The results were known before it was ever conducted. This is just some more Obama propaganda to help him get reelected. Waste of time.

A lot depends on what happens next Tuesday. Hussein will certainly speed up the downward journey. Romney on the other hand can be “worked on” easier, but he’d have to get in the door first.

The question for the Europeans should be rephrased:

“Now that the European Parliament has made it possible for Obama to become the European President, and invited him to do so when he leaves office in America, and he has expressed interest in becoming the European President, do you think they should appoint him to the job?”

I imagine their responses would be hilarious.

Won’t be long before one can walk across some of those countries on the roofs of mosques, with small jumps between them. Thanks Oldeconomybuyer.

More proof that no good deed goes unpunished.

Gen. Patton is somewhere in France spinning in his grave. The swearing can be heard for miles. Excuse me, kilometers.

So what indeed. How many Americans would vote for Francois Holland or Antonis Samaras?

I don’t have a problem with him moving there and letting them do so.

Of course they would. The more Obama can weaken the dollar the better their currency looks against it. The more Obama weakens America, the more power jealous Europeans hold. The difference between Americans and “northern Europeans” is that we LOVE America more than we love Europe. They, on the other hand, love Europe more than they love America.

In other words, why do we care WHO they would vote for????

That's why they are Europeans. LOL.

I find it comical that Barack Obama is so "popular" among voters in Europe who would elect Hitler before they ever allowed a black man to lead their nation.

Okay, send him to Brussels, and put him in charge of Europe.

I don’t give a flip how Europeans would vote.

This is MY country, not theirs.

I don’t believe that. It’s very hard to get 90% of any group to do one certain thing.

Iran? Just maybe..., although I actually doubt it.
